The public federal record on N9088C, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Personal Investment & Managed Properties LLC, an LLC, certificate issued February 3, 2021, expires February 29, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for balloon, dated December 23, 1997, consistent with the 1997 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial S53A-3040 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9088C was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna R182 (serial R18200395, cancelled April 4, 1994); Piper PA-18-125 (serial 18-926, cancelled May 26, 1965). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N9088C. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
